59. What Am I Risking By Not Facing My Trauma And Pain?
In this episode of In the Circle, we’re joined by Ron who brings a courageous and important inquiry to our community: What am I risking by not facing my trauma and pain?Having lost his son due to a skiing accident eight years ago, Ron has firsthand experience navigating through intense grief and loss. I think we are all intuitively aware that something negative will occur if we do not face the emotional challenges of our lives. Yet we rarely ask ourselves, what exactly am I giving up if I don't face it?On the surface, this will seem like a tragic story, but something quite extraordinary has taken place. I want to share my gratitude for this inquiry and for bringing such a delicate and important matter to the table.Tommy discussesWhy we need to face our grief head-onA better way of dealing with grief and lossThe link between spirituality and longevityCan we continue thriving after losing a loved one?How can we make better choices with our pain?Looking for a way to deepen your recovery journey and meet others in the Recovery 2.0 community?

In this episode of In the Circle, we're going to speak about LOVE! What is love? How can we relate to it? Is there a way to cultivate it or connect with it? Love is often confused with excitement, romance, or dependency.

50. How Can I Start Loving Myself Again?
In this episode of In the Circle, we have a transformative conversation on sobriety and personal growth with Keith, who inquires: How do I fix my long-standing issues of self-discontent and low self-esteem, a cycle I’ve been trapped in for years?To truly be free from addictive behaviors, we need to start realizing our inner divinity and the power of living in the present moment. Thoughts of what might have been are unproductive and only do us harm in the end. Adjusting perspectives and accepting the timing of life events is crucial for personal growth and healing.

In this episode of In the Circle, I have the joy of hearing from Haley today who asks an amazingly relevant question—How Do I Navigate Life As A Young Sober Person?Who is my community going to be? Who am I going to get to hang out with? Who will want to hang out with this new version of me? How do I find other people who are interested in health and wellness as a person on a path of discovery? Stepping onto a new path of recovery can be a scary experience, but knowing that you won’t have to do it alone makes the journey less intimidating.

47. Can I Ever Forgive Myself? Healing After Hurting the Ones I Love
In this episode of In the Circle, we delve into the sensitive and deeply personal journey of Peter, a person in recovery who has experienced the profound loss of connection with his children. This estrangement is not a result of death but due to his children distancing themselves over the years. This inquiry is crucial as it touches on loss, grief, self-forgiveness, and the intricate process of making amends. The journey of reconciling with the past, understanding the dynamics of forgiveness, and learning to navigate life after loss are pivotal discussions that hold immense value for many in the recovery journey.I’d like to thank Peter for his vulnerability and readiness to share his story with us today In The Circle. His willingness to be open is a beacon for others navigating similar paths.Tommy discussesThe path to reconciliation and freedomWhy the 12 steps are still relevantThe importance of self-love and forgivenessHow addiction affects everything around youThe process of making amendsFurther Links & ResourcesCatch a Meeting.

45. Why A Grateful Addict Never Relapses

45. Why A Grateful Addict Never Relapses
In this episode of In the Circle, I explore the theme of moving beyond addiction and thriving in all aspects of life. Addiction is a universal human experience, and everyone is on the spectrum of this journey in some way. By using the practice of yoga and meditation, we find ourselves able to move from a state of darkness and addiction toward light, freedom, and joy—true contentment involves a life free from cravings, compulsions, and complaints.It is impossible to experience true gratitude while harboring these things, and it has been said that a grateful addict never relapses. We need to evolve from being the victims of our lives to being the architects of our destiny, actively shaping our experiences with awareness, responsibility, and empowered choice. Tommy discussesCelebrating light in the darknessWhy you cannot complain and experience gratitude at the same timeThe power of SantoshaHow to stop living from craving to cravingThe power of mantra and mindfulness in addiction recoveryFurther Links & ResourcesCatch a Meeting.
